"No Other Lover"

Untrue

Artists:

UK duo Alpines have their eyes on the dancefloor on "No Other Lover", the latest single from their upcoming debut album Oasis, out May 26 via Untrue. An insistent, woozy thump leads the way forward as Catherine Pockson tries to make sense of conflicting emotions for her significant other. "You're so cruel, but you're my heaven," she sings with a sure-footed woundedness that's equal parts devotion and end-of-her-rope exasperation. While Pockson is able to sell us on the fact this as an internal struggle she's wrestled with for months, when you finally come to a decision about something important like the fate of a relationship—as Pockson does here, casting off her doubts and embracing the singular qualities of her lover—it often feels like you've known the answer all along.
